While infection with ΔmiR-UL36/112/148D showed similar levels of MIEP transcripts to WT infection (Fig 6C), ΔmiR-UL36/112/148D-infected cells produced significantly lower amounts (p = 0.0006 and p = 0.0022, respectively) of transcripts derived from iP1 and iP2 promoters (Fig 6D and 6E, respectively). Here, IKBKG is linked to infection.
